Moses was faithful as a servant in all God's house, testifying to what would be said in the future. (Hebrews 3:5)
By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith. (Hebrews 11:7)
By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. (Hebrews 11:17)
What if some did not have faith? Will their lack of faith nullify God's faithfulness? Not at all! Let God be true, and every man a liar. (Romans 3:3-4)
And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. (Hebrews 11:6)
In the Bible and especially in the book of Hebrews we are reminded of the critical importance of faith. Today, however, it seems that more and more people are willing to admit that they doubt the fact of Christ and his redeeming work. What a tragedy! Lack of faith always has not only immediate consequences but can also have unknown dire effect far into the future.
Believers today have the tremendous advantage that they can have a knowledge-based faith and there is no need for blind faith. That knowledge comes from God's two revelations to us: the general revelation of the creation and the special revelation from God's Word. An awareness of these revelations should erase our cries for more evidence.
